*Vacationland Book Tour Across The Arrowhead in Babbitt

May 15th, 2013 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM

Event Location: Babbitt Public Library

Price: Free

At the heart of her book Vacationland
is Naledi Lodge, inspired by those rustic Mom & Pop resorts now
disappearing along with their big fish, bad mattresses, wood docks, flashlight
trots to the outhouse, bear-fear, and bonfires. Up north vacations might not
always live up to the brochures versions of canoe paddling under pine-scented
skies; in the fine print of rusted beer cans on the trail or a barbed hook
through a thumb lies a more realistic picture of Vacationland.

This event is sponsored by the Arrowhead Library System and
funded by money from Minnesota’s
Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.To learn
